The Rhino WIP adds new Grasshopper Hatch components to its set of tools. You can now create, edit and save Hatch patterns. Rhino WIP also includes a new HatchPattern command in Rhino that can also work to create new hatch patterns. Why This Feature? Previously, creating custom hatch patterns in Rh…

Like an organizational feature so they don’t all load at the same time, ie…, Annotative, like generic, floot patterns; section patterns; landscape, etc. Also the hatch gradient seems a little buggy, i know it is new but i can’t finagle it correctly yet.

What would really help is different linetypes besides dash. Such as batting, or with text such as G for gas, S for sewer. Like in ACAD.

Oh, that’s great! Thank you for this great component! I tried out the Line Pattern component. I don’t know if I’m doing it right. How do you manage precision? Here my lines cross although initially they don’t cross? Tiles also seem to have space between them vertically. [Capture d’écran 2025-…

I think there is a bug in the Hatch lines component. I am not sure it is taking the tile size correctly. Based on the input I would expect the uper pattern shown in this screen capture: [image] I reported this and we will take a closer look.

Hi @Pipouille , Thanks for reporting! This is fixed on the next v9 that will be released next Tuesday.

Hi, Thanks for the last fix it works well! Very useful component. By trying out the components a bit more, I’m wondering if there’s an easy way to make dot patterns? Particularly with the Line Pattern Component? With Pattycake and Ralph Plugin , it can be done. In Pattycake they are made with simp…

Hi Pip - [image] Pipouille: I’m wondering if there’s an easy way to make dot patterns? Particularly with the Line Pattern Component? It looks like you can just feed points into both start and end of lines. While Grasshopper says the lines are invalid, the hatch pattern that is baked to the R…

Hi Wim, Thank you for looking into the question! So good, I was able to reproduce it! I encountered another difficulty, but it may be due to my lack of Grasshopper experience: I tried a hatch with 2 or more curves. With the explode into segment component, at the end, when the hatch is baked, only…

I think the issue here is to flatten the Output coming from explode. Technically, it is possible to run multiple hatch patterns and independent “sets” of lines by using a the Tree structure for input. Right-click on Segments and set it to Flatten and I think it will work in this case.
